About

Buena Ola

Buena Ola was founded in New York in 2021. It applies its philosophy in two places: an investment strategy and an in-house lab for applied AI.

Buena Ola Capital

Buena Ola Capital is a quantamental (quantitative and fundamental) investment firm. It manages a concentrated, long-biased triple bottom line portfolio. Each opportunity passes through fundamental and quantitative models that measure growth, quality and risk, and is valued across a range of scenarios. A holding is sold when it reaches full value, when a better opportunity appears, or when it fails to meet the triple bottom line. Markets move every day, and the research never stops.

The Lab

The Lab builds applied AI projects in which a human stays in control. Ideas here move like ocean swell: energy that forms far offshore, organizes over distance, and arrives later as waves. They form inside Buena Ola and take shape through building, testing and iteration.

Current projects:

  • Portolan, an AI investment research system.
  • Quiver OS, an agentic AI operating system for organizations.
  • LineUp, a document conversion and provenance pipeline.
